Answer:

Yes. The are equivalent to each other

Step-by-step explanation:

21 : 35

The LCM of these two numbers is 7

When we divide both of them by 7, we're left with 3:5

24 : 40

The LCM of these two numbers is 8

When we divide both numbers by 8, we're left with 3:5

And, 3:5 = 3:5, so we can say 21:35 = 24:40

<em>PS: Also, if we multiply 21 : 35 by 8 and 24 : 40 by 7, we get the same result, i.e 168 : 280 which also proves that they are equivalent.</em>

It’s true

21:35 simplifies to 3:5 when divided by 7 on both sides

24:40 also simplifies to 3:5 when divided by 8 on both sides

Hope that helps!

About 57 people rent skates at the skating rink each day. It cost $4.25 to rent skates. About how much does the Rink make in ska
seraphim [82]

Answer:1695.75

Step-by-step explanation:

We know that there are 7 days in a week. Since 57 people rent skates each day, we know that 57*7=399 skates are rented each week. Since one skate cost 4.25, we know that 399*4.25 is the cost, which is 1695.75. (If you are not allowed to use a calculator, you can do 400*4.25-4.25, to make it easier to compute)
